K-pop stars have gone above and beyond to show their love for their fans. Recently, Stray Kids’ (스트레이 키즈) leader, Bang Chan (방찬), went viral for how he treated disabled fans at the group’s concert in North America.
Over the weekend, the group performed in Toronto, Canada, as part of their ongoing “dominATE” world tour. During the performance, Bang Chan went into the crowd to greet fans in the audience. However, the idol received praise after clips showed how he prioritised disabled fans. In one TikTok video, the idol stopped to interact with a fan in a wheelchair, chatting with her and her group of friends.
The 27-year-old then moved towards another section of the venue to greet other fans who were also in wheelchairs. It’s believed that Bang Chan purposely approached the venue’s accessibility zone to greet fans in the area. The clip also showed him taking more time to speak with fans with limited movement. The TikTok video has since gone viral and was reshared on other social media platforms.
Bang Chan received praise for his actions and attitude towards his fans. In the comments, fans commended the Stray Kids leader for his thoughtfulness and respectful behaviour. Others also called the interactions a showcase of Bang Chan’s genuine love for his fans. At the same time, some netizens also thanked fans for not mobbing the idol when he walked around the venue.
Interestingly, this news comes after the rapper went viral for showing concern to fans during a chaotic concert in Washington. For context, several fans at Stray Kids’ recent show in Washington suffered from heat exhaustion caused by the heatwave and dehydration. Taking note of this issue, Bang Chan reportedly paid for drinking water to be distributed to fans in the concert hall to ensure their health and safety.
Kudos to Bang Chan for showing love and respect to all his fans. Stray Kids will continue their world tour later this month with the European leg, so maybe we’ll see more heartwarming moments. In the meantime, check out the clip of Bang Chan below:
